The image is of a comic. Panel one depicts Santa Claus. He says, "Have you been naughty or nice?" Panel two depicts a happy dog. He says, "I am ALWAYS a good boy." Santa responds "Very nice!" Panel three depicts Santa again. He says "...And you?" Panel four depicts an orange cat climbing a Christmas tree, turning his head to look back at Santa.

The real question is not "Why is Bluesky so left-coded," the real question is "Why can't the right exist in a social media environment without algorithmic assistance, where people can ignore them"

Happy Birthday, Kaeya!
#GenshinImpact #Kaeya

After a drink at the tavern, I sometimes come out to the terrace for a breath of night air.
Finding a place where both laughter and quiet stars coexist — now that's a rare delight.

Many years ago, I was feeling stressed by the state of the world and I started a Holiday Fairies thing where people sent me their wishlists and I publicized them to try to get everyone gifts for the holidays.

@shelflove.bsky.social skillfully took it over and made it An Actual Thing!

Like SRSLY!

Annette is just like me fr.
Comic Part 1/4 - a group of witches is huddled around a teacher showing them how to collect mandrake. The teacher pulls one out, explaining that mandrakes scream and cry when you pull them for their comfortable soil bed, causing a student called Annette to react by saying "it's just like me for real." The teacher then tells Annette to stop relating to potion ingredients. Comic Part 2/4 - a group of witches is huddled around a teacher showing them how to collect mandrake.

If you like an author's work, the best thing you can do is buy it. The second best thing you can do is ask your local library to buy it. Or, do both!

Now for some sports news...
(this week's cartoon for @theguardian.com books pages)
Panel One: A sportscaster speaks to a television camera "You join us just in time for the annual booksellers versus librarians tug of war." Panel Two: We see the participants warming up as he continues... "Two very strong teams this year, they’ve both been in training since February. As always, the real skill in this match is not to start chatting about boo-" Panel Three: "Too late!! A pair of librarians are discussing the new Margaret Atwood! A crowd is forming! The booksellers are joining in! It's all over!!" We see all the participants chatting. Panel Four: The sportscaster finishes up to the camera: "The rope lies untouched! The discussions continue! We have a draw for 325th year in a row! Join us again next year!" End. Bonus alt-text Content: Fun fact! The first tug of war was between the staff of Cranston Library and those of Daniel Midwinter Booksellers www.cranstonlibraryreigate.com/ www.blogs.nottingham.ac.uk/manuscripts/2017/11/10/booksellers/

Ink drawing- a fairy queen stands staring at the viewer. In one hand she holds a scepter, in the other she lifts her heavy skirt slightly. She is standing in a bramble of blackberries in front of a tree. She has big moth wings.

This week's Thursday snippet comes from my enemies-to-lovers fantasy rom-com Enchanting the Fae Queen - which arrives in just over 2 months!

Preorder now:

stephanieburgis.com/books/enchanting-the-fae-queen

#romancelandia
Against a background of dark violets and green leaves is shown the illustrated cover of Enchanting the Fae Queen, in which a mischievously grinning woman with long blonde curls, a moonstone crown, a pink dress and bare feet, sits perched in a tree teasing the uniformed general who stands before her, his expression determined and one of his hands around her closest leg while she pokes his strong nose with one finger. Above that cover image is this snippet of text: No one was allowed to kill the Golden Beacon on her watch! ...No one apart from her, obviously. But that was different.

Kneesvember 2025 Day 4
The three knights are beside their respective steeds on the ground layered in yellow oak leaves. The yellow knight has a bumblebee, who is eating from a plate of flowers; the blue knight, who has a crossbow and an eyepatch, has a dragonfly who is eating from a bucket of pink slop; the red knight, speaking expressively with wings spread wide, has a snail. Later that evening, the knights packed for their queste. "I have ne'er afore encountered a Dragon" admitted the yellow knight, who fought for honour and glory, "are they large beasts?" "And where shall we seek one?" added the blue knight, who was very cool. "Friends! Worry not, for I am an expert in such matters! said the red knight, who was a great liar. Note: there is a small drawing of Grell and Bagglyn watching the knights very obviously from behind a fence.

A reminder that this anti-trans panic is 100% bullshit and exactly none of our country’s problems are related to someone expressing their gender identity and everyone who isn’t a hate-filled weirdo knows it.

Kneesvember 2025 Day 2
A large crowd of birds is gathered in front of the Queen, who is an ovenbird wearing a crown and a purple cape with white furry trim. There are three knights standing at the end of the royal rug: a redstart wearing a helmet with a red plume, a yellow warbler with a belted sword and metal boots, and a cerulean warbler who has some straps but we see nothing else. There are yellow and purple bunting flags and some banners showing the Queen's image. Growing increasingly eccentric in Her old age, the Queen ordered Her three finest knights on a most dangerous queste: to retrieve the head of a Dragon!
